Sales Tax Information

Tax-Inclusive Pricing

All prices displayed on our website include applicable sales tax. We follow a European-style pricing model where the listed price is your final price – no additional tax will be added at checkout at this time.

As a Maine-based business, we calculate and remit sales tax to states as required based on your billing and shipping address, forwarding the appropriate portion to the relevant tax authorities for numismatic products.

State Tax Exemptions

Most U.S. states recognize the investment nature of precious metals and numismatic products by providing tax exemptions. Examples include:

California:

Exempts sales over $1,500

Many Other States:

Complete exemptions for bullion and numismatic products

Our Tax Advocacy

We support efforts to eliminate sales tax on precious metals and numismatic investments in the remaining states that still impose these taxes. High tax burdens (often 12% or more) can significantly impact the viability of physical coin collecting and investing, particularly when they exceed typical short-term market gains.

Impact on the Industry:

Heavy taxation on these investment-grade products often leads to fewer physical coin dealers in affected states, reducing access and market competition.

What You Can Do

If your state currently taxes precious metals or numismatic products, we encourage you to contact your state representatives to advocate for tax code review and potential exemptions for these investment categories.
